flex_array: flex_array_prealloc takes a number of elements, not an end

Change flex_array_prealloc to take the number of elements for which space
should be allocated instead of the last (inclusive) element. Users
and documentation are updated accordingly.  flex_arrays got introduced before
they had users.  When folks started using it, they ended up needing a
different API than was coded up originally.  This swaps over to the API that
folks apparently need.

 entering atomic context, using:
 
     int flex_array_prealloc(struct flex_array *array, unsigned int start,
-			    unsigned int end, gfp_t flags);
+			    unsigned int nr_elements, gfp_t flags);
 
 This function will ensure that memory for the elements indexed in the range
-defined by start and end has been allocated.  Thereafter, a
+defined by start and nr_elements has been allocated.  Thereafter, a
 flex_array_put() call on an element in that range is guaranteed not to
 block.
